"I am so curious as to what you are doing on your phone. Wanna show me?" Eric asks as he takes steps to her.
Mina shudders and quickly throws the phone into her bag and then clutches the bag to her chest, so he can't see whatever it is. Her heart rate, blood pressure, everything is climbing at a fast rate.
Just then, the door opens and Gary pokes his head in, interrupting like he did just before. "I have dropped it off. We will get our replies in days."
Eric scowls at him till he quickly leaves them alone again.
"So, where was i?" He stops in front of her and as though in déjà vu, he pushes away the table like he did before and kneels on one knee in front of her, looking at her eye to eye.
It is not just about the phone now. There is something else in those probing eyes of his.
Her eyes shines back, pleading, begging him to do it.
